I would not go that far. I think it is safe to say I have a problem. Hell, The first step to recovery is admitting it right..

But then again you have to want to change and well, Lets say Im not there yet lol..

Nick is not all that happy with his inficon D tek and whatever you do, dont bring up the Pilot in front of him! THat why I'm not sure if I should go that route. Im replacing the last of the cheap tools I bought when I was starting out and this CPS is one of them.. So, CJ do you have an advice to offer or what? lol

i hate that darn thing, pos imo. As far as the leak detector it has worked, my main gripe with it is the battery, absolutely horrible, every time i take it out its dead!!! but it has found a leak or two that was unable to be found with other leak detectors, including your CPS....

Maybe I'll look into that fieldpiece slr2. Mechacc made a few videos with it. Looks like it does a fine job. There was just something about standing 5' away from the unit and finding the leak that was appealing to me!

Gotta have the right tool for the job!

Where is all the stuff MADE IN THE USA?

What I liked about the zx it would Pick up leaks far away.I would than switch to my other dectectors to home in.I always bring all I got on a job,to help find the leak,and to see which one does better on any given job,and to know they are all still up to snuff.

Standing away i was refeering to the Ultrasonic. I didn't seethe zx do that in your video. When you were comparing the FP and the ZX1 that looked similar to me. What say you. If anyone's opinion counts it's yours! Thanks.

The ZX-1 5 feet away was the first time I used it (no video) on a Trane residential condenser. Had to get right up next to the case with D-Tek Select. Both were set on high sensitivity.
